Keep clear of Norway
The Norwegian Government did by 2004 issue a ban on the Czeschoslovakian Wolfdog and the American Staffordshire Terrier which are not allowed to import, keep or breed as the dogs are considered dangerous. In the last weeks Norwegian Media a new debate on the ban has arissen. The owners of the Amstaff Majlo - a young Swedish couple - left Sweden for new jobs in Norway. The couple claiming unaware of the Norwegian ban crossed the border accompanied by their pet. Some time later the police broke into their apartment and removed the dog. Fearing the owners would kidnap it the police brought the animal to secret rescue and the owners have to pay approx 400 euro for seeing their dog on a meeting place far away from the unknown shelter.
According to Norwegian law the couple should have been rejected by the border control not permitted to enter Norway accompanied by the dog. In this case something went terribly wrong and most likely the dog will be put to death even if the couple is willing to leave their home and quit their Norwegian employment by returning to Sweden with the pet. I therefore strongly advice my fellow csv owners not to cross the Norwegian border accompanied by a csv, not even for hollidays. It may be killed just by beeing a dog. |
That`s very sad :(
Last year I was on my way to a dogshow in Norway, as I did not have any problems to enter the show with my CSW, I did not think there would be any problems ....fortunatly I wrote you(Per Olav) an email about regulations for entering Norway with my CSW and you warned me not to go, because of the ban ...THANK YOU VERY MUCH :love Greetings Rolf |
But this is TERRIBLE :shock: Who has a right to take MY dog away and kill him, if neither me, nor my dog didn't do anything wrong :shock: It is unhuman :shock:

Tell me if we/I can do more to help you ??? I will send you more photos ASAP !!! I was about 1km from Norwegian border last summer in the artic but I did not dear to enter, even if it was only me and the alps that ever would know, I felt the risk was to high...Maby if I did meet some one that would know the breed, and tell, I was afraid to destroy all your hard work... Way cant they just not send the dog back to Sweden ??? Way kill a inecent animal ??? It sounds like it is against the law of animals right ??? If a nother dog breed in Norway bite someone, by any reasen like a GSD will the dog always get killed ? if not way kill a totaly inecent dog ??? I hope your dog and the Saarloos are safe :( As aperantly this dog was first aloved to enter, and now might be killed :shock: It sounds dagerus to be a CsV or Saarloos in Norway !?! Very best regards / Mikael |
The issue is, Mikael that the owners were not aware of the Norwegian legistation and did'nt know the breed was banned. When they crossed the border their legal Swedish dog suddenly became illegal. That why the dog most likely will be put to death.
The keeping of csvs which were inside the country prior to 2004 is no problem given their origin are verified by pedigree and import documents. The Saarloos is still legal but their situation may change. |

Btw. The csv was banned in Norway mainly because American wolfmutts had killed people over there. |

And I just wont to ask, was not those Wolfdogs less dengarus the GSD and Rottweiler in this report ??? Do not the police in Norway use those breeds and think they are safe :? Best regards / Mikael |
I'm by nature optimistic :p but when it comes to bsl (breed spesific legislation) I'm not, therefore I won't predict a happy ending of this case.
Regarding American wolf dogs/ wolfmutts/ wolf hybrids they may range from high content bastards to dogs with a wolfy look alike. Our 2004 dog law forbid importing dog/wolf mixes regardless of content, which made problems to our racing dog comunity who are importing different types of racing dogs mixes from Canada and the US. I guess it's commonly accepted that wolf mutts may be more unpredictable than pure bred dogs. |

But where I have pass there was nothing, I do not know where they did pass ??? But I think it is like crossing any border they control only 3-4% of the cars that pass or even less ;-) As if you go to Sweden from Finland whit Silja Line you can pass fri on a sunday :lol: as they do not work at the border control at that harbour on sunday ;-) Regards / Mikael |
